Description

Chris Martin's squared-off take on the archetypical shell chair gets a height-adjustable, swivel version with a sturdy 5-star base on castors. His layered, glued wood seating takes its name from the curved bar that tops the backrest in solid oak or beech, a touch that defines the chair's shape and finishes it off much like a serif on a letterform. Ideal for offices as well informal work spaces, Serif's varied base options complement the chair's range of wood finishes.

“Our goal is to use industrial processes to create furniture which people can get excited about, something that gives them pride of ownership,” says Chris Martin of Stockholm-based Massproductions. “You can do that with a hand-crafted piece, but for us the satisfaction comes from achieving it with an industrially produced article.” Chris, an Englishman, and Swedish business partner Magnus Elebäck first met as independent consultants and eventually put their accumulated knowledge to work for themselves in 2009 by opening their own furniture company, Massproductions. 

Within modernist design codes, they strive for a “dignified simplicity” and their emblematic Tio Chair took the prestigious Golden Chair award from the Swedish Association of Architects. Also cognizant of environmental factors, a core concept is to produce “cleverly and in volume” to emphasize sustainability as well as social ethics, Chris says. "We believe that responsible and rational mass production benefits the consumer, the factory worker and everyone in-between.”
